Overview

Sourced from common roots of ancient Chinese (I Ching) and pre-Hispanic Mesoamerican tradition, this easy-to-use new resource distils and updates ancient, archetypal lessons for motivation, hope, and practical guidance in modern life-situations. Symbolic indigenous images and lucid text energise, harmonise, and integrate the inquirer's feminine and masculine natures -- providing an accessible, refreshing alternative to the masculine/aristocratic biases of previous I Chings. The new sequence of hexagrams is specifically designed to help individuals cultivate wise inner responses to circumstances beyond their control. For readers of Toltec Wisdom that have responded so enthusiastically to books like The Four Agreements and to the idea of spirit warriors as in Dan Millman's Peaceful Warrior, this hands-on oracle will be a welcome addition. In these uncertain times, it will be a helpful tool to many seeking inner guidance and understanding.
